    You really are making me miss my 5 piece pearl set. Left it at my Brother's 12 years ago and haven't seen them in all that time. I don't have space for them yet, I have a messed up back among other things and can't work, living with my Dad. I surely miss playing them. My Brother played bass with me, was awesome! That job you did on that drum! That wood looks so nice.

    Hey, Buckin! Got my first saw a few weeks ago! It’s an old Stihl 29 Super. Im a newbie when it comes to chainsaws (or power saws as you call them). I love running them. I love the smell, the sound. Im running 94 octane with Klotz oil. Smells like race fuel. My favorite.
    I’ve also been a drummer since I was 12! Love your channel!
    All my other power equipment is Husky but I couldn’t pass up the Stihl.

    The 59 Ludwigs, paired with a 59 sunburst Fender Stratocaster was an iconic pair up. Add in an early 60's Vox Royal Coachman amp and you had a vintage sound that puts shivers up the spine!

    Wow! Amazing stuff, Buckin'!! So, when I saw you using the heat gun and tile scraper to peel paint off that drum shell, I just HAD to send the link to my drummer son, Chad, over in North Alabama (who has earned quite an international reputation as a drummer and cymbal expert). I've sent him several of your videos, especially when you focused on the vintage stuff. So, I'm gonna paste here what Chad wrote me in reply to watching this video of yours:
    "Yeah, the link you sent was to a chain saw video, but I went to his UA-cam page and saw the Ludwig video. Those ClubDates were a little cheaper line from Ludwig, but the shells were the same as their main lines. They used that single lug design to save costs. The other lines had the usual top and bottom lugs all the way around. Unlike today where lower lines are made with cheap hardware and terrible wood....those club dates were solid!
    Around 12:00' in, he shows and talks about the bearing edge. Those edges on the old Ludwigs and also Slingerlands were warm-city. Big re-rings....can't beat that sound.
    On Ludwig's drums from back then, if the shell was a wrapped finish, they actually tucked the start of the wrap into the wood ply/seam. Crazy. Those are the old transitional badge/era that he has.
    I've had a number of old Ludwigs from the early to mid 60's but no transitional badges.
    Gretsch drums had different edges and shell thickness/ply make up. Old vintage Rogers were some of the best. They even had ever so slightly undersized shells so that the interface with the head at the bearing edges was a little different....made for unreal tone.
    Makes me miss the old Ludwigs I had - Gretsch is still my favorite always, but Ludwig (vintage) is a close close second. They have a different feel."
    GREAT stuff, Buckin'

    Maple and mahogany. It's a special combination both absolutely beautiful wood. I come from a Gibson family. Some insanely beautiful guitars. Unfortunately I'm not a string instrument guy, just never clicked. Drums are the only instrument that clicked for me. Had a Pearl set when I was younger. Nice beautiful blue. Anyways very cool buckin. Really like the natural finish and color. Maple is so pretty!
